Afternoon! Thanks for the new thread @RainbowZebraWarrior
Dh is obsessed by cabbage and will be delighted by today’s addition.
It’s a VN day in the household. The Advent book which arrived today is tempting me.
Today is weekly hairwash day (thank you, cold capping!), so we have had a Cheshire spa onsen at home, complete with facial and self massaged feet. There has been woo music and candles, and marvellous soap (@RainbowZebraWarrior 😍).
Ds kindly brought me a special tea for the “relax” period afterwards and was not perturbed by the face mask. He had selected a special tea. A few months before Dad died, one of his former PhD students had an inkling that things were not quite right (we have a large academic family, many of whom have been friends for decades). This lovely chap sought out a conference in the Uk pertinent to the field so that the not inconsiderable cost of transport was covered along with being able to deliver his paper and consult with international colleagues. He also arranged to visit and talk with dad, as dad was still researching and writing (until the day he passed). He brought gifts, including a very special Taiwanese high mountain tea and tea bowls, the tea being such it has health giving effects. Ds selected this, brewed in his handmade Chinese tea pot and presented in his current favourite Sakura cup. A very tender expression of ds’ love language (food!).
